DCC's "Monday Moves" to Howard University and Points of Interest
Join DCC and Conte’s Bike Shop (Navy Yard) for a fun ~20+ mile ride to US Capitol, Freedom Plaza, White House, Howard University Theater, Howard University (The Main Yard), Howard University Radio Station (WHUR 96.3), Howard University Hospital, Ben's Chilli Bowl (for a meal), Meridian Hill Park (Malcolm X Park), Lincoln Memorial, US Park Horse Stables, WWII Memorial, and Washington Monument.
This ride is geared towards our newer riders (with a chill pace and no one left behind), but all are welcomed. The ride is on streets, trails and sidewalks. There will be a safety briefing to help riders become more comfortable with riding in groups.
We will meet at Conte’s Navy Yard Bike Shop at 10 am and depart at 10:15.
All riders should bring their own hydration and nutrition, as well as a spare inner tube.
*** Please, no music that can be heard by other riders or ear headphones that impede your hearing.
Parking is limited at the Navy Yard, so for those driving, an option is to park at Anacostia Park (aquatic center) and take 11th street bridge to M Street, then a left on 4th.
****all riders ride at their own risk****
If there is a chance of inclement weather expected on Monday, a cancelation notice will be posted by 9:00 pm on Sunday; otherwise, the ride will take place.
